The fact remains that SXM cannot complete any project at the moment without illegal migrant workers. The island is on a over drive building boom and something will BOOM and explode very soon if this rampant over building continues.
And we cannot just make every illegal legal, they are coming in by the hundreds, some come yesterday, I am sure many more will be seen coming in via the beaches with the high seas coming up.
Anyone who lives on a hill over looking a beach has seen this happening, small boat comes in close to shore at 5am-6am, many persons jumping out, people start to run, sometimes a car is waiting for them.
What can take place is that we give these illegal migrants a stay of 3 months, make them pay a fee to SVB if they work, after 3 months they have to leave no matter what.
Our man of action has dealt with this issue in a naive fashion, legalising all these people is not the answer, new ones are still coming in by the droves hoping that they get the oppertunity to become legal, maybe even get the Dutch Nationality, putting a strain on our schools, medical center, roads, housing, infrastructure with too many of them living in shanty areas contributing to the heavy load of sewage running down the street.
